askchapo•Looking for a non-ableist word to describe someone who is pathologically cruel/evil/unempathethic
·23 days agoRelated, but I'd also like a punchy non-ableist word for someone who is just monumentally and deliberately ignorant. Like, whatever the fuck Matt Yglesias is.

The liberal shoots and cries.
The liberal must ascribe a moral dimension to his feelings, or else confront the fact that he is no different from the fascist. His target is just as dead.

doomer•Not a doomer, and I just had to ask something: those of you who are angry at the US for allowing ICE to stifle people's liberties (including me) - how do you channel your anger and irritation?

But it is a bit funny that the artist they're stealing from isn't even American.
Edit: Looks like the artist himself is upset about it https://www.tokyoweekender.com/japan-life/news-and-opinion/artist-hiroshi-nagai-condemns-us-homeland-security-for-stealing-artwork/
I'd argue that the "unseen" can still tell us a lot about games. Any Austin tends to focus on open-world games, and these rely on simulating a world to an extent that a player is willing to suspend their disbelief. Skyrim needs rivers because the real world has rivers, and while players will expect to see them, they are unlikely to care much about where the water comes from/goes. But a developer needs to put the rivers there, and will have to grapple with these questions to some extent. Even then, the developer does not have to create a full simulation of Skyrim's hydrology, they just need to keep one step ahead of what the player cares about to make the world feel "real" enough. Poking at the boundaries of a game can tell us what players and developers do and do not care about, and I think that ties in to what you're looking for.
Some say Telly Monster is a puppet, but let me ask you this: Who is puppeting whom?

He is absolutely coming to their defense because he's said the same sorts of things behind closed doors. And he's enough of an internet denizen to worry there might be a record of it floating around somewhere.

"Ya know Mr. von Braun, I find this rocketry stuff fascinating. The idea that that we have the technology to send a man into space? Truly incredible. But it's funny, I was reading this book about WWII, and the head of the V2 program in Nazi Germany was also a Wernher Von Braun! Now what are the chances of that? Two von Brauns who both work on rockets?"
